Analysis & Design of RCC shear walls in the model using ETABS
Aim - to run the analysis and design the RCC shear walls
procedure - 1. open the file in ETABS And run the analysis


2. run analysis on the model

3. run design check

4. select identify PM-failure

5. select display info and choose pier reinforcing ratios

right click on shear walls to get design details as shown

calculation with IS13920-2016
overall height of wall = 21000mm, length of wall=1500mm
given RC wall is slender
from clause 10.8, largest diameter to beused should not exceed 1/10th if thickness of the wall. therefor, 300/10=30mm so thickness of wall=300mm
25mm dia bar is used indetailing so it is within the limit
according to clause 10.9 max spacing of longitudnal transverse rebar should not exceed
1/5th of the horizontal lenght = 300mm 2) 3 times of thickness(tw)=3x300=900mm 3)450mm
we need to adapt spacing of 300mm both for vertical and horizontal rebar inside RC wall
752.4sq.mm for the entire RC wall height which will be 358 sq.mm/meter height of RC wall
minimum horizontal reinforcement calcluation as per table 1 of 1513920 - 2016
(Ph)min = 0.0025 = 0.5 (hw/Lw-2)(Ph-0.0025)
0.01672 of cross section of RC wall
1500x300x0.01672
provide 16mm dia at 100mm c/c which gives 1000/100x2x201=4020sq.mm
minimum boundary reinforcement calculation as per table IS 13920-2016 (Pv,be)min=0.008
0.008x300x300=720 sq.mm
we provide 8 numbers 12mm dia rebar = 904sq.mm
minimum overall RC vertical reinforcement calculation as per table 1 of IS 13920-2016
(Pvnot=t)min=0.0025+0.01375(tw/Lw)
0.00525 times of wall cross section
0.00525x1500x300=2363 sq.mm
provide 24number 12mm dia rebar = 24x113=2712sq.mm
boundary element of special confining reinforcement as per clause 14.4 of IS 13920-2016
Ash=0.05xSvxh(Fck/fy)
as per drawing maximum spacing of confinement is 100mm
h=minimum clear distance between longitudnal rebar = 150mm
so Ash=45sq.mm
we already provided two closed links of 16mm dia=2x201=402sq.mm
conclusion - we have successfull designed the RC wall and verified it fromthe ductility code
